Q: What is your mission statement regarding the practice of dentistry?

A: “My favorite aspect of dentistry is providing the patient with a good product and a good experience, no matter the procedure. I approach both dentistry and patient interaction as a craft. My goal is for every patient to leave the clinic knowing they received the highest quality of service from the whole dental team. Communication is a big part of dentistry, and I strive for that communication to be two-ways so we can find ideal treatment options for every patient.”

In his personal life, Dr. Crandall spends his free time hiking, cooking, and staying active with his family. Dr. Crandall began a new adventure in 2023 when he had his firstborn son. Prior to parenthood, he and his wife, Lia, spent a significant amount of time traveling, skiing, and scuba diving.
